Mixed-use areas consist of dense population, urbanization, industrial and agricultural activities. River pollution are common in mixed-use areas and 98 of Malaysia's fresh water supply originates from surface water. The biological degradation, adsorption and advanced oxidation process were documented as the available PAHs treatment for water. To date, the application of the photo-Fenton oxidation process has been reported for the treatment of PAHs from contaminated soil (review paper), landfill leachate, municipal solid waste leachate, sanitary landfill leachate, aniline wastewater, ammunition wastewater and saline aqueous solutions. As for potable water, the application of Fenton reagent was aided with photo treatment or electrolysis not focusing on PAHs removal. � The presented MethodsX was conducted for PAHs degradation analysis in potable water samples using photo-Fenton oxidation process. � The designed reactor for batch experiment is presented. � The batch experiment consists of parameters like concentration of 17 USEPA-PAHs in the prepared aqueous solution (fixed variable), reaction time, pH and molarity ratio of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2): ferrous sulfate (FeSO4). © 2019 The Author(s) date: 2019 publisher: Elsevier B.V. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85069837908&doi=10.1016%2fj.mex.2019.07.011&partnerID=40&md5=4fa49f5971480b5b21cc6cbd28b93035 id_number: 10.1016/j.mex.2019.07.011 full_text_status: none publication: MethodsX volume: 6 pagerange: 1701-1705 refereed: TRUE issn: 22150161 citation: Abd Manan, T.S.B. and Beddu, S. and Khan, T. and Wan Mohtar, W.H.M. and Sarwono, A. and Jusoh, H. and Mohd Kamal, N.L. and Sivapalan, S. and Ghanim, A.A.J.
